San Marino. The Psd on the Liberation Day from Fascism: “Without memory of the past, there is no future”
“Without memory of the past, there is no future”.
Thus the Party of Socialists and Democrats in a note focused on Feast of liberation from fascismin which he participated last July 28 “thus honoring the historical memory of the regained freedom together with the Regential Parade, the Guard of the Great and General Council, the Uniformed Militia, the Guardia di Rocca and the Italian Embassy”.
On July 28, 1943, the day of the end of the fascist regime, “he gave back to citizens of San Marino an independent and democratic life; it was tough and it took twenty years in which the San Marino Fascist Party occupied all the vital ganglia of the state, violating our institutions with the complicity of the political groups that allowed their rise, forming a notorious ‘Patriotic Bloc’ “.
The Chamber of Labor “was set on fire” and the opponents “suffered violence and abuse; among these, the socialists and democrats Gino Giacomini and Pietro Franciosi were beaten and forced into exile ”.
“The fascist regime and its fake ‘patriots’, true traitors of the homeland, handed San Marino freedom into the bloody hands of Mussolini and the King of Italy ‘Emperor of Ethiopia’, dragging the Republic into the mud as never before in our long history – underlines the Psd -. The Italian-San Marino Convention of March 31, 1939 sanctioned this ignominy with an overwhelming ‘protective friendship’ that obliged us not to accept the friendship of any other state, thus making us hostile and despised by the free world. It scarred the San Marino, suffocating our independence and sovereignty close between the fascist regime and its ally freedom, criminals and exterminators who dragged humanity into the world war and the horror of the Shoah ”.
July 28 “is a capital day because that day freedom, independence and sovereignty were regained and San Marino found its place among the free states: it rediscovered its history”.
A great popular rally, convened by the Freedom Committee in the Concordia theater in Borgo Maggiore, “brought together the democratic San Marino citizens who united they wanted the end of fascism, reaching with an imposing procession behind the blue-white flag the Piazza della Libertà where many other citizens were waiting “.
Precisely in that square “today we celebrate our freedom regained by democracy”.
A turning point that “in 2022 we see all heirs, parties or movements excluded, but also no one responsible for constantly renewing the sense of that reconquest in order to honor the struggle for the freedom of our most illustrious ancestors and avoid authoritarian and liberal relapses”.
Therefore, it is necessary “from now on to prepare to celebrate the eightieth anniversary of that crucial event that will fall next year”.
July 28, 2023 “will be an important day for the ancient Land of Freedom which will also be able to show the numerous visitors the care and responsibility of the Republic in celebrating and defending our greatest value: its freedom”.
